Vanessa Tomada
Framer – Owner
I'm Passionate to learn all there is to know about art supplies and art preservation. I formerly worked at a large art store, and brought many ideas and expectations when I joined the team in 2018.
I'm primarily an oil painter and watercolour artist, but I've dabbled in just about everything and can help with most questions.
Marilyn Sadik
Framer – Customer Service
Experienced in just about all branches of art, she took lessons with professional artist Dick Van Den Hoogen.
She taught the acrylic pour classes at the shop in the past.
When she's not in the store, she's painting, sewing, knitting, gardening, and reading up a storm!
Look out for her in the Sunshine Coast Art Crawl!
Rose Sicard

Rose has a ton of experience with art and design. She's worked in many creative fields including graphic design, signage, print production, sculpting, and movie FX.

Stay tuned for art and creativity classes in 2021-2022...

In 2018, Vanessa joined the team to manage the store, so Lisa could have more freedom and time to travel. Vanessa had previous experience selling fine art materials, and brought lots of ideas, new brands, and products into the shop.
